Opera-sponsored MMA fighter wins match!

January 3, 2008 · by Haavard

On December 31, 2007, millions of people in Japan tuned in to watch Norwegian MMA fighter Joachim Hansen defeat his opponent Kazuyuki Miyata in the "K-1 PREMIUM Dynamite2007!!" event.



As you can see, Opera's logo was clearly visible during the fight, and Joachim's team was wearing red Opera caps and Opera-branded t-shirts as well. The popularity of this event should ensure some nice exposure for Opera in Japan.


Update: I notice that Daniel is covering this on Opera Watch as well. Go there for more pictures.
